Is Drupal 7 really end-of-life?

Yes. Community security support for Drupal 7 ended in January 2025. Sites still on it no longer receive security patches and should plan a migration to Drupal 10 or 11.

How long does a Drupal 7 to Drupal 11 migration take?

It depends on site size and complexity, but most migrations run 6 to 14 weeks. We give you a fixed scope and timeline after a short discovery review.

Do we lose content, URLs, or SEO when we migrate?

No. We migrate content, preserve URL structures with redirects, and protect search rankings and accessibility compliance through the move.

Do you work with government and university teams?

Yes. A large part of our work is higher-ed, government, and nonprofit Drupal, including RFP-driven and procurement projects, with accessibility (WCAG) built in.

Can you take over a Drupal site another agency built?

Absolutely. We regularly adopt existing Drupal sites for maintenance, security updates, and ongoing development.

How do we get started?

Send your project details through the form above or book a 30-minute call. We'll review your site and respond with clear next steps, no obligation.

Do you handle Drupal hosting and ongoing security updates?

Yes. We offer maintenance plans covering core and module updates, security patching, uptime monitoring, and backups. We can also advise on hosting.

Is your work Section 508 and WCAG accessible?

Yes. Accessibility is built into every build and migration. We target WCAG 2.1 AA and support Section 508 requirements common to government and higher-ed.

Can you work within our procurement and RFP process?

Absolutely. We regularly respond to RFPs and RFQs, provide the documentation procurement teams need, and deliver on fixed scopes and timelines.

What size projects do you take on?

From single-site migrations to multi-site enterprise builds. If it's Drupal, we can scope it, book a call and we'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit.

Where is your team based?

We're based in Seattle, USA, and work with clients across North America. Your project is handled by Drupal certified engineers, not offshored or handed to juniors.

What's the difference between Drupal 10 and Drupal 11?

Drupal 11 ships with modern PHP requirements, a refreshed admin UI (Claro/Gin), Symfony 7 under the hood, and removes deprecated APIs. It's a small upgrade if you're already on Drupal 10, and a much bigger one if you're coming from Drupal 7.

Should we use Drupal or WordPress for our project?

Drupal is the stronger fit for complex content models, multi-site setups, fine-grained permissions, accessibility-heavy work, and government, higher-ed, or enterprise compliance needs. WordPress is fine for simpler marketing sites. We're happy to give you an honest recommendation on a discovery call.

Can Drupal integrate with our CRM, SSO, or data systems?

Yes. We regularly integrate Drupal with Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, SAML / Okta / Azure AD single sign-on, payment gateways, and custom internal APIs, using core modules where possible and custom modules when needed.

Do you build headless or decoupled Drupal sites?

Yes. We build fully decoupled Drupal back-ends powering React, Next.js, or mobile front-ends via JSON:API and GraphQL, as well as progressively-decoupled setups when a full rewrite isn't justified.

How do you handle Drupal performance and Core Web Vitals?

Every build includes caching strategy (BigPipe, page cache, Redis/Memcached), image optimization, lazy loading, CDN setup, and Core Web Vitals tuning so the site passes Google's LCP, CLS, and INP thresholds.

What does ongoing Drupal support cost?

Maintenance plans start in the low four figures per month and scale with site complexity, uptime requirements, and how much new development you want included. We'll quote based on your actual site after a quick review.

Do you offer Drupal training for our team?

Yes. We can train your editors on the admin UI, your developers on the codebase and deployment pipeline, and your leadership on roadmap and governance, remote or onsite.

Can you help us write or respond to a Drupal RFP?

Yes. We help agencies and internal teams scope RFPs that attract serious Drupal vendors, and we respond to RFPs with the documentation, references, and compliance answers procurement teams require.
